Dummy
Director:
Greg Pritikin
A restraining order leads to new love, a rock band learns
Yiddish, and everything clicks into place at somebody
else’s wedding. Funny, winsome, quick-witted, and
brave – this Dummy is pretty sharp..
The
Event
Director: Thom
Fitzgerald
An intricate patchwork of relationships slowly unfold,
explaining the behind-the-scenes events surrounding
Matt's shrouded death.

Four
films - one dog, two mediocrities and one good directing
sample. I don't feel like lingering on the bad stuff
until I get home and write the full wrap-up that will
appear on Monday. By then, I will have seen another
eight or nine movies, be able to offer a first-eye
analysis of Chloe Sevigny's most recent entry
on the "Special Skills" section of her resume
and have closed out the festival with the final show
ever at the Uptown theater at the final Midnight show,
the buzzy Undead by the Sprung Brothers. .more
